10:36 EDTMHGCBurkle says not a bidder for Morgans Hotel, supports company slate
Ronald Burkle of Yucaipa, owner of 27.9% of Morgans Hotel's outstanding shares, said in a read regulatory filing: “We read with great interest the announcement by Morgans Hotel Group that its slate of director nominees intends to initiate a process to explore strategic alternatives, including a sale of the Company. As the major creditor of Morgans and the holder of certain key consent rights due to financing we provided to the Company many years ago, we want to express our support for the Company’s slate in pursuing this effort. We believe the litigation with the OTK Group will prevent any reasonable deal from closing including the one Yucaipa currently has executed with the Company. In addition, we note that we do not plan to be a bidder for the Company. Lastly, we note that we do not believe OTK is qualified to run such a process and believe that their election to the Board at the June 14th Shareholder meeting would lead to continued uncertainty and animosity and detract from and actually deter any effort to maximize value for all shareholders.”
10:12 EDTMHGCMorgans Hotel comments on Glass Lewis recommendations
Morgans Hotel Group announced that Glass Lewis & Co. recommended that shareholders do not vote for the full slate of OTK Associates' nominees to Morgans' board. Morgans previously announced that it would nominate six candidates for its seven-person board, thereby ensuring that OTK would be represented on the board by at least one director. "We believe that Glass Lewis reached the right conclusion by not supporting the Olshan children, the hedge fund short-seller and day-trader and another nominee with no relevant experience. However, Morgans strongly believes that Glass Lewis reached the wrong conclusion by backing the other three of OTK's seven director nominees," the company said.

16:20 EDTMHGCOn The Fly: Closing Wrap
Stocks on Wall Street were lower, but the major averages closed well off their worst levels thanks to a move higher in the final hours of trading. The late move wasn't enough, however, to keep the Dow from ending its streak of 20 consecutive higher closes on Tuesday sessions. ECONOMIC EVENTS: In the U.S., the trade deficit widened to $40.3B in April from its $38.8B prior reading, which compared to a deficit forecast of $41.1B. In Europe, an index of U.K. construction activity in May beat expectations and U.K. retail sales were also better than expected. COMPANY NEWS: Salesforce.com (CRM) and IBM (IBM) both announced acquisitions. Salesforce.com will acquire ExactTarget (ET) for $2.5B, or $33.75 per share. The deal sent shares of ExactTarget up $11.59, or 52.44%, to $33.69, while Salesforce slipped $3.24, or 7.89%, to $37.80. IBM said it will buy privately-held SoftLayer and the WSJ pegged the value of the transaction at $2B. IBM shares lost $2.76, or 1.32%, to $206.19. MAJOR MOVERS: Among the notable gainers was G-III Apparel (GIII), up $9.07, or 21.22%, to $51.81 after its first quarter earnings beat estimates and the company raised its full-year earnings outlook. Also higher were shares of Morgans Hotel Group (MHGC), up 86c, or 12.89% to $7.53 after the company said it will explore its strategic alternatives. Among noteworthy losers was Dollar General (DG), down $4.91, or 9.17%, to $48.64 after reporting in-line first quarter earnings giving a full-year earnings outlook below expectations. Also lower was Pandora (P), which slid 83c, or 5.45%, after dropping over 10% yesterday as speculation mounts that Apple (AAPL) will launch a competing music streaming service at its Worldwide Developers Conference next week. INDICES: The Dow was down 76.49, or 0.50%, to 15,177.54; the Nasdaq was down 20.11, or 0.58%, to 3,445.26; and the S&P 500 was down 9.04, or 0.55%, to 1,631.38.
